THE PRICE OF SUGAR The sugar situation presents the most flagrant example of profiteer ing that has so far been uncovered. The light broyn Cuban sugar that is now being doled out one pound at a time at from 25 to 30 cents a pound is turned loose in New York at $5.15 per hundred. By the time it gets to Hopkinsville it has gone to $19.95 wholesale in spite of the- -fact that' the government allows on - ly 10 per cent, profit.
